Africa: The Fourth Annual EISA Symposium

For the past three years, EISA has held an annual symposium, each of which focused upon a selected democracy and governance issue. The Fourth Symposium will be held this year with the theme Preventing and Managing Violent Election Related Conflicts in Africa: Exploring Good Practices. It will focus upon the problem of persistent, violent election related conflicts in Africa with a view to understanding their causes, magnitude and consequences for democratic governance. The conference will explore ways in which these conflicts can be prevented, managed and resolved and, in the process, share best practices from across the continent.
